Hello and welcome to the 13^th official Old Corpse Road newsletter.

Back on track... The Drummer Situation

"After a long battle with a herniated disc in my spine, I have returned to live duties with the Old Corpse Road. It's been a long hard 6 months of physio, injections and scans and it is far from over but I’m in a position where I can handle drum duties well enough to gig.

In our downtime we have wasted no time in writing and pre-demoing tracks for our album which we will begin recording in the coming days."
